Tears are in my eyes during these broadcasts, even if it all happens far away from my home country, Germany. The unknown person who made all this possible deserves more than a medal. Thank you for doing this for others.
Same here. Tears of joy and love watching these videos
Agreed 100% we are all humans, root word of humanity. Shout out to the Deutschland!!!
Same here in the Netherlands. I saw these videos the first time just after my mum passed away for the first time and it somehow got me through the December month
Getting to watch these and see all the good they’ve done must feel so wonderful and be such a reward in its own. It’s so awesome. I’m not quite so far away, but I’m in Florida so basically across the country and I look forward to these every single year.
If all wealthy people were like Secret Santa, the world would be a MUCH better place.
AMEN to that 🙏
So true Christina. We can all help in small ways also.When I lived in a small town in Wyoming I used to collect clothes and shoes for a shelter in Salt Lake City and deliver them around December 1st . It wasn't big like Secret Santa but they really appreciated it.
Amen!
Bashing rich people doesn’t help anyone. Become rich and then do whatever you’d like with your money!!
Yes God is rich like that 🙏👌
I wait every year to see this post. If I ever won the lottery, this is what I would do with the money. It brings tears to my eyes just watching this. East Idaho news never stop doing this. It’s so wonderful.
This is the best part of Christmas watching these heart warming videos
The best part of Christmas is Jesus....kindness towards others like this makes Him happy, because that is what He wants us to be not just during Christmas, but everyday.
For me too ❤
I love watching these videos every year. They are amazing! Thank you secret Santa!
❤️Ditto from Canada 🇨🇦
Secret Santa is a wonderful role model whose generosity brings joyful tears not only to the recipients but also to the viewers. Kindness and compassion are the best gifts. ❤
The lady who lost her 5 kids has me tore up in tears when she said he's left me and he's up there with the kids.....I LOST IT 😢😢😢
It's a blessing she has a granddaughter living with her.... The pain she feels....
I'm the same way I lost it too. its so sad that she has lost all her kids and hisband.
The fact that she immediately said that someone else needs it more broke my heart - the most loving and giving people are often the people who need something in return
To the secret Santa, if by some chance you see this comment.. thank you. From a 28 year old woman who has never been to Idaho and is living in Florida..thank you. I find so much joy and hope by watching these every year. So far this year has been so wonderful to witness. So thankful. And thanks for helping your fellow humans.
Good grief, that poor woman! Ruth has had to bury way too many family members!! Bless her heart!! ❤️🩹 She sure is so deserving of this! So selfless!!
What a welcoming home she'll get when she goes to be with her sweetheart and their kids.. wow. 💖✨️
Thank you, Secret Santa!! ❤
Ruth's parts of the video made me tear up. Poor woman! God Bless her.
I couldn't believe what that poor woman has been through. May her life get better and better, every minute, forever.
Yes, that's way more than one person should have to endure. May God be with her and you. Hello and Happy Holidays from Oregon! 🎄
I don't even live in Idaho but I look forward to these every year 🥹❤️ we love secret Santa!
Watching from Magnetic Island....Qld...AUSTRALIA!!! LOVE these videos!!! Its nice to see some KINDNESS in this world we live in. !
Me too
What magic
Same! Watch these every year from Hamilton Ontario Canada. One of my favourite Christmas traditions. THIS is what Christmas is all about. Thank you Secret Santa!
I love that we all have the tradition of watching these yearly 🥰💖
The amount of love and humbleness of Nate and the others going around with him giving out these gifts, is huge . Thank you secret Santa for choosing these great people to do your wonderful deeds .
Seeing the gentleman get emotional about his new lawnmower was wonderful. As we get older we don’t expect great surprises like this. Bless Secret Santa, Nate and crew and EIN!🇨🇦
Thank you Secret Santa for giving your heart and fortune those who a little help. Thank you Nate and EIN for assisting Secret Santa. 🎄❄️⛄️🦌🎅❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
The people of Idaho are blessed with their Secret Santa, Nate, and the team.
Nate is the man. I have never met him in my life, but i feel like i have known him for years like an old friend. He has great warmth and compassion and is truly a gentleman to all who he meets. God bless you, Nate, your family, and all your helpers and their families, too, oh and Secret Santa.
Thank you secret Santa for what you do for these deserving people. You truly are a blessing from God !
My prayers go to the beautiful person who is the Secret Santa. May all your giving be a double blessing to you. ❤ USA
The fact that secret santa keeps his identity anonymous speaks volumes. I hope one day it gets revealed.
Nate, you are absolutely the perfect person to give the Secret Santa gifts, you are so kind and caring! I love watching everything that you do, from watching the Lori Daybell debacle and you confronting them to this, you are still the same person. Possibly my favorite personality on UA-cam, thank you for being who you are!!!
WOW!!…Thank you for the HAPPY tears😊😊…it feels good to see deserving people receiving blessings…Thank you Secret Santa’s handing out blessings✝️🎄
I love Secret Santa almost as much as Nate!!!❤❤❤
Well said! He seems so kind and thoughtful!❤️
This is nothing short of miraculous, a millionaire giving away to his community. Im sure his wealth triples every year and I wish you much much more success !!!
So here we are again. Another year another series of me crying on the sofa. Thank you secret santa and thank you Nate and the rest of the East Idaho News team. From UK
My fave is the guy at Walmart. No words. Checking for enough space for his family. ❤️
Agree!!!!
100%
I love watching this from Sprague river, Oregon every year. This year was so much harder, and I wasnt emotionally able to watch this years shows until now.
My family lost 6 family members from fathers day June 21, 2021 until Sept 21 of 2022. The father of my 6 children, a month later my father and April 3, 2022 one of my beautiful boys passed away. We also lost multiple cousins and my beloved niece.
I have been a " secret santa" for 20 years to as many kids in our community as possible. I started quilting again the year before my son passed away. My biggest joy and passion has been making and giving away my quilts to friends, family and so many people I will never meet. I made 69 kids quilts and bought a toy or gift card for each child the christmas before last. This year I made 20" embroidered stockings for each child. The local church helps me every year by passing them out so I can remain anonymous with the kids.
I love seeing the joy you bring to the people whom are blessed by " Secret santa". I know the joy it brings your Santa each year.
Thank you guys for what you do, its so amazing and inspiring.
It warms my heart that the East Idaho community understands that everyone reacts differently & appreciates that some people arent as effusive as others but are still deeply grateful. My pare ts had a tough year in IdahoFalls many decades ago & i realized i dont have an accurate picture of this wonderful, loving region. ❤ from Billings
Such an uplifting channel !! 🥰
Seeing Evan how appreciative!! What a wonderful gift
Yes I'm from Scotland and look forward to these broadcasts every year. It cheers you up. Keep up the great work.
For the past many years, I've gone around to homeless areas every Sunday up to Christmas giving the needy pet food to help them during this season. Homeless don't usually get help for their pets care, and I would really like to do more but I'm on limited income myself. I can see the love these people have for their pets and I'm glad to be able to do something. In remembering our four-legged friends we also affirm our humanity.

Oh my! That grandpa spoke volumes with his silence. It shows how much he really appreciated what you did for him and his wife. Thank you so much! Secret Santa God has blessed you and you are using those blessings to bless others. Thank you❤
Finally the time has come again
Every Christmas I look forward to watching these videos
Me too❤
Me too!!!
One can almost always tell the people with true human charts because they always say there are other people that need or deserve this more than us. They will give and give and give and that's why it's so important to have someone like secret Santa say no, now it's time for you to receive, you have given plenty!
Such a wonderful series, I watch every year. My heart breaks that any family suffers from not being able to pay medical bills. The family not able to get a kidney without 5K is absolutely heart wrenching. Thank you for helping them.
Omg .. I'm in tears... I don't know how that lady copes after losing all 5 children and her husband..sending love a blessings to her from the UK xx
Secret Santa and his chosen delivery elves are real life super heroes
God Bless all the recipients and the Secret Santa and crew.
Why aren't these videos viral? They are such a blessing to viewers also.
I love the recap of all of them. Now I can cry for 1 hour at a time!!! My favorite time of the year! Secret Santa and East Idaho News! You all rock!!
The first lady I cried for joy with her, I can see how she was very kind and warn hearted madam. She keeps saying thank you.
Ruth brought tears to my eyes! I can’t imagine burying all 5 of my children and husband! She’s spent her whole life servicing others and no one left to take care of anymore. Bless her Lord! I hope she finds healing in taking the step to leave and visit her granddaughter 🙏🏻
Heart warming, the appreciation they show❤
My boyfriend Rick and I would watch you every year for a few years with a greatful heart that we could see the smiles on the faces year after year. and no matter our circumstances we were glad to see them the next year you were on.
We cant now as Rick passed away on June 22/23 I wish he could see them. I know his face would light up every time I put it on or if he would find a episode. Keep up the great work.
My sincere condolences.
Whomever is this Secret Santa is he's a hero! You're amazing sir!
While we all acknowledge and pay respects to Secret Santa for making all this possible, I think a big very big appreciation should go to Nate, for all that he does. No one else could ever be more fitting than Nate. He knows exactly what to say to every recipient, to brighten their day even if they were having a terrible day. Kudos guys, a job well done.
.Every ome of these folks deserve 100k. This is precious but a million......
Secret Santa is awesome!! Love ya!❤❤✌
Just sat here sobbing watching these lovely people receiving gifts to help them out. How does Nate not cry delivering these??
So deserving ❤❤❤❤. God Bless her and her family.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It felt weird to see Nate going after Lori Daybell after years of watching him on Secret Santa. I'm glad that he is able to go and tell people that they are good and that these families are good to their children and families.
it is nice to see that the secret Santa has a good heart and Money is not an option to him. Thank you whom ever you are Santa
I waited a year for this I wish we had a santa like that here in South Africa. God bless the Santa and God bless your family Nate and the team at East Idaho News
Look forward to this every year! Let me grab my tissues!!!
Evan is a sweetheart. Bless him and his family!
I have said this before and I will say it again, these do my heart so good.
As a person who struggles from paycheck to paycheck I can tell you that these gifts of kindness do more than help they give hope to those who have lost hope. The Secret Santa who blessed these people has a Loving Genuine Heart...There is a place in Heaven for these Angels
Stay strong.... it will get better.
@@jahbay thank you I try to keep my faith in God 🙏 without him I don't know what I would do God Bless!!
I love this secret Santa. So often, regular people need help, but they are never in need enough to get help from different programs, and they always fall through the cracks. This secret Santa knows that people take care of their own needs but that they sometimes fall on hard times and deserve a helping hand, and secret santa provides the help they need to get through the rough times. Absolutely beautiful, thank you, Secret Santa. If I ever get more than survival pay, I would like to do that for others as well. This Secret Santa shows the true meaning of love and kindness, and the fact that they stay secret shows so much. Thank you for your kindness and generosity. You are truly an amazing person or people.❤
I love watching the blessings that are given to people when they need it the most. Secret Santa, please tell your friends to help others.....you deserve a special place in heaven my kind stranger....love watching these.
The first couple, were so humble, "Other people need this more than we do" A true Blessed man & family. Hugs from around the World, you deserve everything. 🙏🙏❤❤
i just love it.. thanks to secret Santa and East Idaho News from Copenhagen/Denmark
Cry, and cry, and cry. What a wonderful program, Secret Santa is a really loving, generous, unselfish and caring person. May God bless him and his gentle Elves they are really lucky to deliver money and gifts. All my love from Italy ❤❤❤
These people are so deserving. Thanks secret Santa for Blessing them. Merry Christmas 🎁🎄
Nate I've been following you for years thankyou
I’m in SW Idaho. I watch these and they make me feel better about the world and my own life. Secret Santa is amazing, I wish I could do the same thing for others!
Ruth’s story had me in tears. I lost a young child to a rare cancer many years ago and it was honestly the most difficult thing to go through. I can’t imagine losing so many children (ALL OF THEM) and now her husband too. I can’t really even express how I feel, my heart really goes out to her.
My heart goes out to everyone who is suffering and struggling.
Thank you Secret Santa for touching so many peoples lives with kindness and love!
I agree with her Secret Santa you are amazing. We love you secret Santa. I have cried a river of happiness because of you secret Santa. I don't mind secret Santa because you have brought me so much joy I love you your helpers.
Secret Santa is a very special person. I have a friend who had quite a past. Was locked up in a basement as a child. She is a single mum who devoted her life to her 3 children. Worked in schools hospitals, security and works as a volunteer helping people. I know she doesn’t eat at times yet would give up anything for anyone. She’s an incredible person. What amazing is that she always has a smile.
I help sometimes when I can with shopping when I visit. I wish they had something like this in the uk. Merry Xmas everyone ❤️
It’s my favorite time of year ! East Idaho news secret Santa! - ❤from Canada
When I watch this I am reminder that kindness is shown. We are blessed that these people are showing that they help our others.
Thank you Secret Santa for giving so much to this good woman who takes care of her husband and son so well. Such a giving woman she is.
I especially love the ones where they go to an elementary school and gift to a worker there.
Nate, you have the best job ever ! Lucky you 😅
Thank you Secret Santa & the East Idaho News crew! As a person whose family suffers from autoimmune disorders, my heart goes out to Charlie and her family. My mother had many surgeries due to her RA and donated anything the doctors took from her body for research to help cure autoimmune diseases like Charlie's. Thank you for what you all do! God Bless from Philadelphia, PA
It’s a week before Christmas and I’m going to watch every day before work !!! It really helps to improve your mood and attitude while going to work so without knowing Secret Santa has blessed more than the recipients!!! I absolutely LOVE this !!! Thank you for sharing her story !!
Ruth!! My Gosh :( We all LOVE YOU..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ All your family in heaven goes with you wherever you go.
Life Changing... Thank you EIN and Secret Santa... Making The World A Better Place For Those Who Least Expect It... Love from across The State Border.
I am crying Love what you do for people.Nate I get a lot out of watching you make others Day.
Omg, I'm bawling watching this. Thank God for putting these Secret Santas on this earth. They're truly special people.
I look forward to these videos all year.... I wish they did stuff like that in Queensland... there's no greater feeling than helping someone out, I would def be part of the crew....
Evan is a sweetheart ... I held it together till I saw Ruth 😭😭😭😭
Good on you East Idaho....😊😊 you're a wonderful example of empathy and compassion...
Much love from Brisbane Queensland ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It still sounds odd to me when I hear you call each other Sir and Ma'am..... it's Mate 😂😁🤪
Wow! I adored your Queen for years and now adore your King! Of course, I adore Prince William the most and his bride!
Ther first lady is a SAINT. You can tell she is the glue in that family. What a wonderful and sweet woman she is. Wow.
I love how thoughtful these gifts are - I love that they get gift cards, for example, to Home Depot so that they can pick their own lawn mower. I also LOVE AND APPRECIATE that the gifted cars are fully paid off, including taxes. Truly no added burden - BEST SERIES ON UA-cam!
What a blessing always, God bless east Idaho news and the secret Santa
Every year I look forward to this.. And I don't know why. Because all it does it make me cry lmfao
Aww watching these warms my heart and shows humanity does still exist. Thank you to secret Santa for showing ever lasting love.
I Love these Secret Santa's but I can't watch with out ending up in tears this family is so precious and deserves everything that NATE delivered from Secret Santa! Love from AKRON, OHIO Thanks NATE for doing this for Secret Santa 🎅!
I love the secret Santa videos! I love to see other people get blessed 😊
Been watching East Idaho News Secret Santa for the past several years and love the the strong sense of community. People can do so much for others without a lot of money to no money. Helping others when you can. Have kind words for others to let them know you appreciate them. Thank you from Sacramento CA
Just amazing,I feel their happiness I have their tears SS you couldn’t have found a better person than Nate to deliver these gifts that change people’s lives. Wish we had a Secret Santa in my country!
Omg Evan was literally speachless he seems like such an amazing man and fun to be around he was definitely floored him and his family deserves them gifts .
The JOY and relief that secret Santa and the team bring to others is nothing but short of miraculous. God bless you all.
Nate is really the heart of this show. He and his team are absolute angels. I love him and i love east idaho news and secret santa.
Evan really got me. I wish there was more money in that check for him. He’s working so hard with 2 jobs. He needs room to breathe.
I'm hoping that money they were putting toward car repairs will be free to apply to other needs now. (and possibly sell that other vehicle).
You never fail to make me cry! God is so good and He knows exactly who needs the help and love!
The idahoan secret santa is a national treasure
I look forward to this every year. I live in B.C. Canada..am a single mom on disability due to illness. Our family lives in Toronto and Portland Oregon, so we have no family here. My son is 15 and has high function Autism and is not into holidays or special meals or visitors. So, we pretty much keep to ourselves...he mostly lives in his room. I save throughout the year to get him a few gifts and I thrift shop for wool and beads. So, I spend the year making hooded cowels and hats and for the kids I make plush minion and pokeball and owl hats and jewellery to give to neighbours, homeless and our local mission and Salvation army. That gives me warmth and joy. My dad passed in February and his birthday is December 24 and this year is a little harder. These beautiful stories make me feel less alone and happy. Thank you for all you do. Much LOve.
OMG, I am bawling my eyes out! I LOVE these stories, your community, and your news station, Nate ❤️
Me too! Glad I have lots of tissues!
Delighted to see you again for another year, spreading hope
I hope that all the secret Santas are as rich in their mental and physical health as they are in their very generous wallets bless them,
These are the best videos. Love these and all those involved.
It has become a tradition for me to watch and see the compassion shown by Secret Santa and the crew from East Idaho News......Good News!
Secret Santa 🎅 once again thank your for filling my heart with joy with all you do for others. Your gift continues giving and will for years to come with these videos. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ❤️
Can you imagine the joy and humility secret santa must feel ...whomever you are ...how many you are ....God truly bless you and this wonderful family too
I have literally ugly cried this whole video! What a beautiful soul this Secret Santa is may they be blessed beyond measure. ❤
